Mac Book Air, don't buy it.
 

:1orglaugh

just kiddin'!!!

This thing is AWESOME!!!

bought the separate dvd drive, nice and slim, fits right into the side pocket of the carrying case and a usb 4-slot hub.

LOVE IT!!!

When I read the title I was like WTF :1orglaugh

Got mine 10 days ago and love it as well :)

The thing I read which is keeping me away from one is that I would only use it for travel and you cannot change the battery so it would not work well for long flights, right?

i was thinking about getting one

You can get an airline adapter and hope that there's a plug for it in the plane you use :)

This thread does not deliver.

x2 lets get some action shots or something we can drool over.

I won't.

Too expensive for only bragging rights/being part of a the "world thinnest laptop omg omg omg" hype.:2 cents:

Overpriced unless you pay $3.2K for it. (the SSD drive)

I could get a laptop that beat their "entry" level one easily, for less than their thin price of $1900.

IBM T61p; 14" SXGA, 2GB, 802.11n, 100GB 7200rpm HD, Horribly fat, at less than an inch and a shocking 5 pounds:upsidedow ~ $1200

I would be afraid of sitting on the damn thing or breaking it somehow....being so thin while cool, makes it look like a toy

sony viao TZ series. Cheaper. Lighter [?]. Faster.

not cheaper, I had one, it took a shit, so I looked at the new ones before going with this. A decent one is in the upper 2k-3k range. The Mac was only $1800

must have been the tax rebate :|

1.8k is very reasonable.

looked at them the other day. I'll be getting one in the future for sure.

no reason to not be able to have the best of mac world/windows world/*nix flavor.

Why not be able to do it all?

What's next? mandingo cock?

I need to get me one of them

How well does the basic version run Photoshop/Illustrator CS3?

being lightweight makes me always feel that i'm gonna break it

I like my laptops big, robust and beastly. Screw light weight and thinness. It's too expensive for such a pussy looking laptop.

very nice I need a new laptop have been thinking about going mac for a while

Ill wait until they bring the new Mac laptop out, i hear its the size of a credit card and slips right into your wallet !!!!:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

No pics anyone?

Gotta say, not a big fan of macs but checked out one of these that a friend just bought...one of the coolest fucking things I've seen in awhile.

looks thin :)

damn, that is thin!

I can't wait for SSD prices to come down to earth (and reality). Those are amazing.

I dont really buy the hype sorry

If I hadn't just bought a regular macbook a few months ago ;( That things is really sweet. I love how it can mount to a DVD drive on a different computer.

thinking about picking one up

they offer insurance on it in case i drop it and break it????

Ii have that on my existing Dell laptop... i tend to break shit left n right

the SSD is more stable, however, you never know how much until they've been tried and tested by the public for awhile, they area also supposed to be faster, but I tested them side by side with the regular Air HD, and it was barely faster. Not worth the $1300 price increase imho.

I would probably break it lol.

I've had mine for a month.
SSD is awesome, dead quiet, quick.
battery life is good, better than my sony viao
..and i've become a complete mac junky now..all of my pc friend want to punch me in the face since i wont stop telling them how much windows blows

why would you want a thin laptop anyways? everoyone could use shedding a few extra calories when carrying a brick around

The things look and feel great.

If I could justify $1800 on a new laptop plus the cost of the dvd rom, I'd buy one myself.

How in the hell can you even stay awake on long flights? A lot of the time, I'm groggy before we even take off.

macs are overpriced crap

$1800 for a clunky T5000 series processor, no CD/DVD, and an iPod hard drive? Bleh. Now if they would have stuffed it with a T7000/9000 series processor, a real hard drive, and a slot-load optical, it might be worth it. I'd rather have a Sidekick or Blackberry instead... it's even smaller, plus they have a built in phone.
